Samsung s5 is a good piece...a new experience to the mobile lovers. But the bjggest problem i have with my s5 is the battery life..its the worst battery i have ever seen. Even galaxy grand which was my previous phone gave an excellent batter back up for a day. But with net on,s5 caters the needs only for about 5 hrs,which is so shocking. If you ask me,i would say NO TO S5....GO TO S4 OR NEXUS 5

darkgamer, 23 Jul 2014Please try to get one plus one.
And it doesn't beat the hell out of s5. It cheats on benc... moreno sir, couldnt agree anymore with you..
the chipset gpu rendering is the no 1 deciding factor that explain
the whole phone performance in general..,
graphic rendering is the most burden task in mobile computing...
that why you will see the gpu peak shader 'gflops' are increasing from flagship to another flagship.this scenario are same as what we see in desktop computer graphic card.
thats why "futuremark 3d mark" is only worldwide certified graphic bencmark that whole world can rely.

A slower gpu will lead to slowing down the phone performance in general.A phone with
spectacular camera is nothing / useless if equiped with slower gpu.

Techno J, 23 Jul 2014We have seen the news regarding exploded Galaxy S3 and damaged back of a galaxy Note 8. By loo... moreAlso news on iPhones explosions, so it means that iPhones have also cheap build quality.
Don't be one sided.

Sam76, 23 Jul 2014Agreed, it's better than S4 but tell me, today if I exchange my S4 for S5 wouldn't I get a han... moreMi3 can't compete against s4. It just beats it in benchmarks which is what you asked.

Performance is a very small part of a phone. Surely mi3 can't match the features, screen, sensors, camera, developer support and battery life of s4.

darkgamer, 23 Jul 2014It has snapdragon 800 which is better than the snapdragon 600 in s4 LTE.
Now comparing snap... moreAgreed, it's better than S4 but tell me, today if I exchange my S4 for S5 wouldn't I get a handsome amount compared to the Xiaomi MI3? Now that's called brand value which the Xiaomi doesn't have. Further, i own the S4 for few months now & I haven't faced a single issue about anything, it has a great screen resolution & superb camera, these new phones like Xiaomi have better looks & are available for a very reasonable amount but they don't last long, you can't be assured that they'll stay with you for years but with Samsung you can rely on that.
PS: I'm not at all against Xiaomi so pls don't get me wrong.

Tcool, 23 Jul 2014Oh I see...
Common people don't know about that.
Sorry...We have seen the news regarding exploded Galaxy S3 and damaged back of a galaxy Note 8. By looking at these facts anyone can say that Samsung also has cheap build quality.

Sam76, 23 Jul 2014I wanna know how it beats the S4?My friend who bought a Xiaomi Mi3 from Ebay showed me. He has a Galaxy S4 Exynos version too. He showed me how powerful it is. The basic aps such as phone book, message, internet even games can open 2-3 seconds faster than the Galaxy S4.

Except display and camera, Xiaomi Mi3 can beat the Galaxy S4 in performance. But that doesn't mean that Mi3 has a bad display and a camera.
